    Broken And Blessed

    The law is the hammer of God to break us so that we will be empty of our confidence in ourselves and declare our dependence upon His grace and glory.

    “Broken and Blessed!” Galatians 3:15-22 Our experiences shape us. For most of us, “experiences” rather than “truth” carry more weight in defining our understanding of life than anything else. We arrive at the conclusion that what we experience, through our eyes, is truth. As a result of this way ...read more

    Jesus’ followers are to submit to His Lordship and do His will. If we are to submit ourselves to the Lord, we must begin with a broken, teachable spirit. That teachable spirit is described for us in the "beautiful words," the Beatitudes"

    The Blessings Of Forgiveness Series

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jun 22, 2004

     | 15,000 views

    Jesus teaches us to forgive. This is important because (1) forgiveness releases us from bondage, (2) gives us the freedom to grow, and (3) leaves room for God’s work.

    We have a forgiving God. We receive His forgiveness purely on GRACE. We pay no penance; we did no work to justify forgiveness. In fact, we cannot promise we will always stay RIGHT. We are forgiven because of Christ. We forgive because we have been forgiven. So what does these verses mean? ...read more

    Blessed Are the Merciful Matt. 5:7 INTRO. This is the first of the Beatitudes that deals with the attitude of a Christian toward his fellow man. Mercy is love in action.
